It happened fast: rush hour traffic on Highway 101, a CHP officer's lights in the mirror, and a citation for 52 in a 45 zone. One San Francisco driver hadn't planned on any of it, but she knew right away what she didn't want: five years of inflated insurance premiums following her around because of one bad morning.
She signed up for Finish Today Traffic School's online course. After finishing, her certificate went straight to the San Francisco Superior Court (who allowed her to take traffic school) and the California DMV database electronically. Since her ticket type and driving history made her eligible, the court masked the violation from her record entirely. Her insurer never found out, her premiums didn't budge, and her driving history stayed intact.
There's no clock ticking over your shoulder here. The course is self paced from start to finish: study when it works for you, sit the final exam whenever you're ready, and we take care of getting your certificate to the court and DMV once you're done. No paperwork to mail in.
It's the question we get more than any other. The reassuring answer: there's no required pace beyond your court's deadline. Some people sit down and finish it in one stretch. Others chip away at it over a week or two, a lesson here, a lesson there, whenever spare time shows up.
A ticket is annoying enough on its own without turning into years of higher insurance bills. Enroll online today, or call 888.676.8520 if you'd rather talk through the sign up process first. You can dive into the course immediately and won't owe anything until you're ready for the final exam.
